Kanell (
Preppy Kitchen) and his Preppy Kitchen enterprise have become an online phenomenon with over 10 million subscribers. His second book is a solid representation of his approach and brand. From the first page, readers are swept away by the stunning photography that lures them in to eat with their eyes and dive into the delights of the offerings. Early chapters outline ingredients and equipment lists along with some easy items to keep on hand to save time. The array of recipe categories takes readers from make-ahead pancake and waffle mix to crispy orange-glazed chicken to no-churn homemade ice cream and everything in between. The book covers a large variety of options that will help cooks feel they are putting something delicious and appealing on their tables, highlighting different cooking devices such as air fryers, slow cookers, and instant pots. Kanell assumes a certain level of kitchen skill and the ability to have ingredients on hand, which may be off-putting for some.
VERDICT An attractive and practical resource for everyday cooks, but it might be slightly out of reach for newer cooks and those on a budget.
